"I also should note that my laptop has a software controlled RF switch; to turn 
on the wireless radio requires a special kernel module (av5100). Is it possible 
that the laptops experiencing this problem require some software to turn them 
back on? Apparently, it would seem as though the Bios (acpi) is disabling the 
touchpad purposely. Otherwise, if it is a linux kernel issue, why aren't all 
laptops affected?"

The Gateway notebook that this bug was originally filed for used a
software switch to control the WiFi, so I wouldn't think that the
problem should be related to that.

The motherboard chipset was an Intel 915G, not sure if that could be
related or not.
